With only Zaunite Urchin as a way to cycle the deck, it can sometimes feel like Riven Viktor is its own worst enemy and the deck can lose games to its inconsistency. The main issue the deck can run into is bricking its hand, most of the time finding spells like Decimate or Ambush early on, or Survival Skills without any unit to use it with. While the direct damage usually is planned as burn damage to close out the game, Mystic Shot and Get Excited! are two very flexible damage spells and act as the main removal the deck has access to outside of trading in combat. The Cannon is also a burst speed discard for Survival Skills. Poro Cannon is another card that helps to gain access to both created cards and some chip damage thanks to the Daring Poros. In the support department, the deck features Riven’s followers, Blade Squire and Runeweaver, both helping to generate created cards but also great support tools in order to push for damage. Also, with several cards featuring the augment keyword, the deck naturally grows several units at the same time, creating much more pressure than if the deck had to invest for every single one. In this regard, Viktor Riven doesn’t necessarily need to establish a regular flow of damage like other aggressive decks and can be comfortable in not attacking for several rounds if it helps the deck advance towards a better setup. Joining them in this logic are the Ballistic Bot (or Mini-Viktor in some communities) and Nyandroid, two units capable of reaching very high attack counts thanks to the augment keyword, making them a threat to deal with as soon as they hit the board. In order to accomplish this feat, the deck can count on both its champions: Viktor and Riven, both being notorious for growing out of proportions if not dealt with quickly. And looking at both its play and win rates in the past week, it is looking to be a very successful game plan so far.

Instead, it is looking to install a threat and buff it to threaten double-digit damages and then finish the game through burn spells. The archetype is looking to be the aggressor in almost every matchup but isn’t trying to damage the opponent regularly as a Spiders deck would do. The deck could be considered a highly synergistic aggro deck.
